Choosing The Best Socket Rails For The Money | Olsa Ares Craftsman Harbor Freight Carlyle

[@mdlee52]

Here is a magnetic twist lock rail that is worth checking out: amzn.to/2GZGf81

[@HardKnocksForge]

Thanks good buddy. One less video I have to shoot meow.

[@pl747]

Hyper Tuff socket rails from Walmart are THE best and cheapest too.

[@_P0tat07_]

I was looking at the us general magnetic socket rails, and they are so expensive. $20 per rail, that’s insane for harbor freight. I’m going to start out with the sheet metal ones. And I’ll upgrade them to something better when I feel the time is right.

[@deeman77777]

Dang, I am glad I ran across this video. You did a great job of explaining exactly what I wanted.

[@gregorymahnken9682]

I used to use those plastic rails with the ball detent but after putting them in a mobile toolbox, got a lot of broken clips so I went back to the cheap metal ones.

[@waboom248]

I wish there was a metal rail with metal square drive retainers and detent ball. Also not magnetic. If there is one let me know!

[@dustinpomeroy8817]

Wal-Mart has some decent ones for 5 bucks and I was impressed,unfortunately I went to put my 13 piece impact sockets on it and it would only hold ten,disappoint cuz I really liked them ,I think I'm gonna buy another and cut it down with the other and affix them back to back to each other.Also I have some aluminum ones from Kobalt I really like.Glad to see a video.

[@Tundra_Guy]

can you hang those on a pegboard?

[@indie8892]

Great to see you back md , thanks for the info.

[@mdlee52]

Thanks for checking in!

[@Brother287]

Old video but great detailed video. Will be picking up those aluminum rails and cutting them down in size.

[@brandonrodriguez3075]

It is posible to use the Ares clips on the Olsa tools rail?

[@midwestapprentice1904]

i just went with the harbor frieght ones, Dont have the money for 30 dollar rails, gotta save that for actual tools, maybe one day

[@Samwilliamsfoundingfather]

Glad you are back

[@mdlee52]

Thanks

[@Brother287]

How do those astro impact nano sockets hold up? Heard mixed reviews about them

[@mdlee52]

Paired with my M12 stubby they work great for me.

[@reap62]

Check out was marts new rails, they're cheap and you can customize them and cut them to length for shorter sets

[@reap62]

Wal mart

[@kevinbeck9459]

I like the holders from Walmart

[@jaredmilkyway5235]

Well hot damn! Look who's back on the tube! Good comparison buddy

[@mdlee52]

Thanks, Jared! I've got a few more videos in the works...

[@AntonioClaudioMichael]

I have some olsa rails that are 7 inches wide and hold 80 sockets

[@mdlee52]

I think those are a really great way to go for a tool box.

[@singlecams]

didnt even know there were such differences good to know :)

[@mdlee52]

Lots of variety! Thanks for checking in, buddy.

[@wyattoneable]

Hey it's good to see you back. And I really need some new socket rails. I have a set that keeps falling off the rail and it droves me nuts.

[@mdlee52]

Thanks, Wyatt. They have a couple of combo options that aren't super expensive.

[@wyattoneable]

@@mdlee52 I ordered a 3/8 drive rail...the orange one. Not a bad price at all for aluminum.

[@AntonioClaudioMichael]

The steel ones the sockets get stuck on them all the time also the metal sheet metal one suck

[@mdlee52]

Agreed!

[@Frankie_M.]

You should checkout the Mechanic Time Savers Socket rails I think those are nice 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼✌️

[@mdlee52]

I've heard a lot of good things about those! Thanks, Frankie.

[@brotherbrian1]

Welcome Back!! I've been looking at socket rails myself for the last few days. Those Olsa look pretty good. I would like to get some of those VIM magrails, but $28 a piece is hard to swallow, but might be worth it in a professional environment where they never leave the drawer.

[@mdlee52]

I think the Olsa rails in a combo pack are a pretty good deal. Thanks, Brian.

[@snap-off5383]

HE'S BACK! Good to hear from you again!

[@mdlee52]

You too, buddy!

[@AntonioClaudioMichael]

Great video Mdlee52 brother

[@mdlee52]

Thanks for stopping by, buddy!

[@scottpearsontoolsmore185]

Great video thanks brother. Great selection of socket rails. I can remember when they just had the metal clip rails. I think you were better off just letting them roll around in the tool box. I like all the different choices you have today. The rails have come a long way just like everything else. Keep up the great work see you in the next video thanks again brother

[@mdlee52]

Thanks, Scott. Yes, they always looked better on those rails but they never managed to stay on very long.

[@scottpearsontoolsmore185]

@@mdlee52 They didn't hold the deep wells with out falling over.

[@mdlee52]

Yep, they work okay on the shallows but not the deeps.

Proof of life? Lol

[@johngibson3594]

Wondering where you were glad to see your back. I may be out for a while in hospital now been here for days heart related issues may need open heart surgeries worst case scenario. I I can say is this sucks. Thanks for the vid enjoy watching

[@mdlee52]

Woah, thanks for keeping me in the loop! Good to hear from you, John.

[@mdlee52]

A lot of people are praying for you.

[@johngibson3594]

mdlee52 I am leaving hospital today and have to wear a vest that will shock me if I have a heart attack when my heart gets stronger I will need surgery I can say this sucks

[@patcb829]

What are you the only tool guy on youtube that didn't get one of those Capri lights? Edit that video must be in the queue with the tool box tour.

[@mdlee52]

Lol, ya I might be feeling a little left out... I do have another Capri video coming up, but not about the light.

[@HardKnocksForge]

New intro- Back out of the closet...with a brand new video!!!

[@mdlee52]

Glad you had internet to watch it!

[@JUSTINSTURGILLTRUCKING]

Shoeeee weeeeee I guess it will be another seven months before we see another video

[@mdlee52]

Maybe not quite that long!

[@everydayfleettech2286]

JUSTIN STURGILL TRUCKING his next video will be the tool box tour lol

[@mdlee52]

Just you wait!

[@BradsWorkbench]

Imposter! But I do like the free magnetic rail idea. Good thing I stocked up before that free coupon expired 👍🏼

[@mdlee52]

I'm sure there will always be more coupons in the future. Thanks, Brad.

[@BradsWorkbench]

mdlee52 idk.... HF is doing weird stuff lately

[@mdlee52]

Yo Dave!

Long time buddy

[@mdlee52]

Yo Garry, thanks for checking in!

[@ifitsnotbrokenfixit1193]

Can't believe that you finally came out of the closet and did a video.

[@mdlee52]

Lol, don't go anywhere near Knocks' closet!

[@Budgettools]

You are completely wrong

[@mdlee52]

Thanks for having the bell clicked.

[@lumberlumberlumber1]

It warms my heart that you also hate the stamped steel socket rails of Satan.

[@mdlee52]

I'm glad there are other options. Back in the 90's we had little choice.

[@rustybrowneye]

Westling machine or gtfo

[@mdlee52]

Too expensive.
